Feminism isn't called the longest revolution for nothing.

When the gender role starts to descend, boys get into the masculine box.

I think if we could raise one generation of kids without violence and shaming, we don't know what might be possible.

the less powerful group usually knows the powerful one much better than vice versa - blacks have had to understand whites in order to survive, women have had to know men - yet the powerful group can afford to regard the less powerful one as a mystery.

Women are only half responsible for children. Men raise children as much as women do. Until men are as nurturing as women are, and until women are as active outside the home as men are, we won't have democratic families, and therefore we won't have democracy, and we will continue this hierarchical notion of life.

The art of being helpful is behaving as if everything we do matters - because we never know which things might.

learning must travel the distance from head to heart.
